baked eggs & spinach

Popeye would be proud of this! 
Eggs, spinach, nutmeg ... sort of like a florentine ... baked in a ramekin.

Serves 1

1 or 2 eggs (depending on how ravenous you are!!)
2 handfuls of baby spinach
1 tablespoon of double cream
1 tablespoon of grated cheese
teaspoon of chopped chives
butter
nutmeg
salt & pepper

Wilt the spinach in a pan with some butter. Drain.
Grease a ramekin with butter and put the spinach into the bottom.
Season, add the cream, grated cheese, half the chives and salt and pepper.
Crack the egg on top of the cream and spinach.
Put the rest of the chives and a grating of nutmeg on top of the egg.
Bake in the oven for about 10 minutes.
